Mike Idacavage
Marietta, Georgia
The special dragon scheme for the JSDF F-15J 303rd squadron during the 2003 TAC Meet inspired Mike to build a Micro Ace 1/144 scale model to replicate it. He drilled out the solid cockpit and replaced it with a resin one, added scratchbuilt FOD covers, and lengthened the fuselage. For the cloud dragon, he made a mask by reducing a 1/72 scale drawing, then painted it.
